Smile Audi rs8


Hello

here my latest project, Revells Audi R8.

I got the body from a model-friend, it was already painted and modified at front and rear. I sanded and polished all painted areas, the model was finished using parts from the Revell kit and some other stuff.

- 2 extra diffusor plates 0,5mm sheet

- wheels HD

- mirrors Tamiya CLK DTM
- tires, Tamiya Enzo rear, SP low profile front

- seats Tamiya GT2

- honeycomb mesh CrazyModeler
- engine intake Fujimi Gallardo

- R8 GT wing
- 2 air cleaner (breather caps) under glas

- brakes PE, Skyline R35

- R8 GT3 rear window (tinted)

- R8 carbon decals
-exhaust pipes Tamiya Enzo




















Mike

Re: Audi rs8

Wow this thing really rocks !!!

Perfect colour, stance and wheel selection.
Love that rear window treatment.
Seems like nobody has recognized it.

Looks nearly "stock" - but definately isn't - OEM+
